To the editor: As to the proposed restaurant at Skinker and McPherson . . . As is usually the case, the local neighborhood people who would be directly affected by this wouldbe restaurant fall into two groups: those in favor of and those opposed to its location.

While the process of decision-making grinds on in its attempt to fulfill the demands that this particular situation calls for, I think it only fair that I bring out another point to ponder. That point is this: Try to think of how many times you have been frustrated, to the point of being nearly violent. by people who were trying to park in front of the place at Skinker and Millbrook? If ya get my drift.

Well anyway, I’d say if someone is serious about puttin’ a restaurant in at McPherson then it would be worthwhile to prohibit parking on the east side of Skinker between Waterman and McPherson. Dan Flynn
